The reason i went for an alu rad is that the standard rads looks cheap. I changed the rad in my last car to an alu one and i never had any problems....well my friend owns the car now and he's never had any problems (7years down the line)
I find that if somethings breaks or needs to be replaced, due to ware and tear, i tend to replace that part with an uprated item. |
Standard one is fine at over 700bhp.

Just thought aluminum rads were more reliable than the standard items

im a fan of alloy rads. recently got a mishimoto item for my car and v pleased with it.

Fitted same one to my classic last week.Be warned if your running a front mount the fan shroud takes a good bit of trimming and even a little bit of the fan blades:lol1:
Adds a bit of bling too:thumb: |

standard rads may cool ok but the plastic tanks will crack over time. I prefer my alloy one, looks better too
